Sound Like You Actually Live Here
You know that feeling when a French person says something, and you smile and nod... and have absolutely no idea what just happened?
You're not alone. And it's not your fault. Real French people don't talk like a textbook — they're full of fillers, slang, and expressions that never made it into your lessons.
This free guide changes that.
What you'll get
Sound Like You Actually Live Here is a free PDF packed with 80+ real French slang words and everyday expressions — organised by category so you can dip in and out whenever you need it.
From fillers like ben and genre (the French equivalent of "well..." and "like") to money slang, people words, and the expressions that'll make your French friends do a double-take — in the best possible way.
You'll find yourself nodding along to conversations you'd have completely missed before. Ça baigne !
Yes, please, I want to sound like a local!

Bonjour, I'm Frannie!
I've been helping people fall in love with French for over 20 years — and one of the things I hear most often is "why did nobody teach me this stuff?" So I made this guide.
Enjoy! 🥐
